STMicroelectronics Uni-Directional TVS Diode 5 kW 2-Pin Through Hole Package R-6 BZW50-22

STMicroelectronics BZW50-22 Uni-Directional TVS Diode is engineered for safeguarding sensitive electronic components against voltage spikes and transients by clamping harmful surges up to 5 kW. Its robust construction and high peak pulse current handling capability make it ideal for industrial, automotive, and consumer electronic applications.

This TVS diode features a single forward diode configuration with uni-directional transient voltage suppression, providing precise protection in power supply lines and signal circuits. The diode meets operating temperature ranges from -65°C to 175°C, ensuring reliable operation in harsh environments.

The product comes in a standard 2-pin through hole package type R-6 with compact form factor (9.1 mm height, width, length, and diameter), simplifying mounting on printed circuit boards. With low leakage current of 5 μA, it minimizes standby power consumption while delivering rapid response to voltage surges.

Key operating parameters include a minimum breakdown voltage of 24.4 V, maximum reverse stand-off voltage of 22 V, and a clamping voltage of 51 V at 1 mA test current, making this device suitable for protecting sensitive electronics from transient overvoltages.

Typical applications include transient voltage protection for industrial control equipment, power supplies, telecommunications, automotive electronic modules, and general-purpose electronic circuits. Its high peak pulse current rating of 1177 A supports protection against high energy surges, including lightning strikes and inductive load switching.
